Field-free particle focusing in microfluidic plugs.
Particle concentration is a key unit operation in biochemical assays. Although there are many techniques for particle concentration in continuous-phase microfluidics, relatively few are available in multiphase (plug-based) microfluidics. Existing approaches generally require external electric or magnetic fields together with charged or magnetized particles. This paper reports a passive techniqu...
متن کاملFocusing of Bose-Einstein condensates in free flight
We discuss focusing of Bose-Einstein condensates after release from a confining potential. It is shown that in the presence of a linear inward velocity field along the axial direction an elongated condensate will contract axially while expanding in the radial direction under conditions of free flight. We discuss the conditions under which such a focus can be observed and show that this is virtu...
متن کاملMicrofluidic Protein Separation by Free Flow Isoelectric Focusing
Disposable, inexpensive microfluidic devices have the potential to become a robust tool for proteomic research for separating and identifying proteins and protein complexes. In this work, a preparative scale free flow IEF isoelectric focusing (FFIEF) device was designed, investigated, and optimized. A constant electric field of up to 350V/cm was generated across the separation channel upon opti...
متن کاملA Data Focusing method for Microwave Imaging of Extended Targets
This paper presents a data focusing method (DFM) to image extended targets using the multiple signal classification (MUSIC) algorithm. The restriction on the number of transmitter-receiver antennas in a microwave imaging system deteriorates profiling an extended target that comprises many point scatterers. Under such situation, the subspace-based linear inverse scattering methods, like the MUSI...
متن کاملMicrofluidic preparative free-flow isoelectric focusing: system optimization for protein complex separation.
Isoelectric focusing (IEF) is the first step for two-dimensional (2D) gel electrophoresis and plays an important role in sample purification for proteomics. However, biases in protein size and pI resolution, as well as limitations in sample volume, gel capacity, sample loss, and experimental time, remain challenges. In order to address some of the limitations of traditional IEF, we present a mi...
